Commander's Tactical Evaluation

Reviewed by FedeSack
“Gnaeus Pompey is a middle- or back-row cavalry support hero designed to bridge mid-battle survival into late-battle physical damage. His Skill 2 triggers a 426% additional attack on two enemy squads after a normal attack, while his Skill 5 stacks +20% physical damage (up to 100%) on your cavalry squad after each additional attack starting from round 5. Whenever your legion loses more than 25% of its total troop power in a single round, his Skill 8 grants all friendly squads an 80% damage shield for their next 2 hits and heals your front row (308% recovery rate). Therefore, he is a natural support for late-scaling cavalry carries like Caesar.”

Deployment Summary: Gnaeus Pompey is a Support commander introduced in Sx16 (rated Low Tier). Commands Cavalries in the Middle row (with secondary flexibility in the Back row), following an unlock priority of 6th - 8th - 7th.
